Really good! I never thought a pre-made guac would be good but these are tasty and would be really handy to take to work.

I've never been able to find the snack packs (Fee talked about them on the old boards, I think)- only the big ones, bummer. Did you get them at your regular grocery?

I would try them if I could get my hands on some, because the big ones are pretty decent, but like fatcat said, they go brown too easily. I meant to check at TJ's last time I went if they still sell the frozen individual avocado halves- that's as close as I can get to snack-packy guac goodness.

yeah I found them at a regular grocery but it was the first time I'd ever seen them- they were by the Yves and Lightlife fake meats in the produce section.

I forgot about those TJs avocado halves- those are pretty good too! Haven't bought them in over a year though, so I'm not sure if they're still around either.

Wait, hold on. Frozen avocado halves? As in, it does not ruin an avocado to freeze it? If so my life just got alot easier. Do they do anything special to them before freezing or have any preservatives or something?

This is news to me as well. I only ever freeze mashed/pureed avocado these days. Once I put an avocado in the freezer (whole) and it came out all rubbery. It softened enough to be edible :(

I tried these once and was disappointed in how the texture was when they thawed.

Nope, just avocado halves. No preservatives as far as I recall. But it's been quite some time, so I'm not sure if TJ's even carries them any longer. I was not put off with how they defrosted. I left them in the refrigerator overnight and they were great the next day. But like I said, it's been a while, so don't quote me on anything.

fun fact, some store brand "guacamole" doesnt not contain any avocado at allhttp://seattletimes.nwsource.com/html/n ... ole30.htmlAnd my southern californianess laughs at all of you. I bought organic avocados today at the store for 85 cents a piece. We have high rent, but forking-a, we also have avocados up the bunghole

That's so gross. Here, have a bowl of partially hydrogenated oil and food coloring guacamole.

I buy that stuff a lot. Avocados are just so expensive around here, but that stuff will go on sale all the time. I don't have a problem with the stuff going brown, probably because I usually end up eating it all in one sitting. I do like adding diced tomatoes to it though.

I just bought some more of these yesterday! And Adam Crisis, GTFO with your 89 cent organic avocados.

I had them a few months ago. They were packed in those vacuum-sealed plastic things before freezing, so that there wasn't any air around them. But other than that, no preservatives. All the things that I used them in after thawing them were things that called for mashed avocado, and I had no issues with the texture.

Now you're just being mean, Adam. Best I can get is regular Hass on sale for .99

Wow, so they still have them? I looked for them when I was at TJ's last time, but didn't see them. Granted, I didn't look very hard, and I didn't ask, but that's good that they still have them.

Not all of us are lucky enough to have avocados year-round for a reasonable price. Or different TYPES of avocados!

I don't know who I'm madder at: Kraft for killing the sacred Guacamole, or the woman suing cause she can't read a label on a pre-made dip before using it and being disappointed it's not really food.

I'm going with the woman. So many companies do things like this. But... maybe we're just used to reading labels, so we don't typically fall victim to this sort of thing? Plus, it has whey in it, so we wouldn't be picking the Kraft stuff up anyway.

I'm with you, AV, I've been putting avocado slices or WG on my sandwiches nearly daily for the past few weeks. Thanks, Supercarrot!

eta: missmuffcake, I don't know if I've had the hot one. I currently only have the original one.
